If by "good deal", you're asking whether that's a good price for five Clairefontaine notebooks with 96 sheets of A5-sized paper, well, yes, it does seem to be.
If by "good deal" you're asking whether this paper is worth paying more for than a pad you can pick up at the grocery store for super cheap... it depends. This paper is very good, if you like super-smooth paper that minimizes feathering, ghosting, and bleedthrough. I've had some trouble writing on it with a fountain pen, which had more to do with the pen than the paper- the nib wasn't quite set up to handle paper that smooth.
But you are paying a premium for higher paper quality, and only you can say whether that is worth the extra cost. (And remember: the "extra cost" here is not just in comparison to bargain-basement stuff; it's also in comparison to paper that is just a bit cheaper than this.) That's not very satisfying, I know, so I'll leave you with this: if I had $50 in my notebook budget this week and a Massdrop account, I would get it.
